Is this feeling normal?
I fractured my right fibula (acute, nondisplaced, mildly comminuted) five days ago but for some reason I keep thinking that I’m faking it. Like I not only saw the xray but I literally heard the bone snap yet my brain keeps saying that I’m faking it because there’s no swelling or bruising (which I know is normal). I also haven’t been wearing my boot as often as I should because I don’t have severe pain but I’m resting and on pain meds so this also leads to me thinking that I’m faking it. This is probably my anxiety making me think this but is this a normal feeling to have or has anyone else had this feeling before?
Also sorry if this is all over the place lol
